Suffocate lyrics

We never dropped the anchor

We only held it off the side

While you prayed our ship was coming

I knew the wind already died

Sometimes the undertow feels like the tide

Sometimes the brutal truth, it cuts you like a knife

I was suffocated where I stand

But I'm not just the shadow of a man

You never asked for nothing

I only wish you would've begged

While the life through our window fed like flies on the dead

Sometimes adrenaline is the only way that we survived

And sometimes the bleakest days are the only place to hide

I was suffocated where I stand

But I'm not just the shadow of a man

Get away from the all white picket fence

How long will you wake up to the dead

(Hold on, hold on, she said)

(Hold on, hold on, she said)

I'm just a dreadful vampire

Sitting on this crumbling empire

I dissolve and melt and crack

And I'm the one that won't come back

You can't ever smile, you can't ever breathe

You can't have my child if you're pregnant with me

You can't have a soul and you just can't let it be

Well sometimes the undertow, it feels like the tide

Sometimes the brutal truth, it cuts you like a knife

Sometimes you pray that someone throws you a line

'Cause you can't live if you're suffocating
